Epilogue:

"Where am I?"

He stood, poised in nothingness, watching everything around him fall into pieces. He
watched the Pharaoh dissolve into Darkness. He watched the union of the seven
Millennium Items. He watched several million, billion events passing by until he
finally reached the Light.

They say that history repeats itself.

As does death and rebirth.

Five-thousand years later, in the middle of a crowded bustling city, a boy sat in his
room. A small boy with unnatural jagged red, black, and yellow hair. His fingers
clumsily fumbled with two golden puzzle pieces. The shards connected with a soft
click.

Quietly he reached for the next piece. It would be soon.

Closing statements:

I originally hadn't planned this part, but then I felt guilty. Thus the little impromptu
epilogue.

For those of you who write fanfics of your own, almost all of the morals and values of your
characters come from your own personality, whether the obvious characteristics, or a trait you
admire. I find YGO quite a unique anime to write about because of the stark contrast used to
represent Light (love, hope, faith) and Darkness (despair, betrayal,hatred).



Q and A:

Q: I swear, when Yami spoke 'So Be It' my mouth fell open. I don't believe
this! Whatever happened to happy endings?!
A: Endings with angst are also very happy. It all depends on your definition of happy.
In my reality, I am happy, so therefore… *cough* nevermind.

Q: ChibiZoo?? STOP MAKING THE DAMN CHAPTERS SAD!!!!!!!!
If you THREATEN the author, she'll never update!!! (
A: GAH! I am _not_ a Chibi!! *thud*
Go ahead and threaten me. I'm pretty much used to it.

Q: You killed yugi...i've never seen that happen before......i won't
flame, but i gotta ask why
A: Yuugi is probably my most loved character. I adore him above all the other YGO
characters. So, why would I kill him off? That's for me to know and for you to find
out.

Q: Please make it were y/y get together in the end!
A: They have. What have you been watching on TV?

Q: Hey, can you update Nocturne?
A: I was in the middle of this really good idea and then lost it. If you can e-mail me a
plot idea, I will be glad to use it. Otherwise, I don't think it will continue.

Q: Is he REALLY dead? Or are you going to write the next part about the future?
A: Well, you won that contest :)

Q: ...No, instead I will complain that Yuugi never got any sweet, sweet lovin'
from Yami before it was "'fft! Ka-tunk!' Dead boy!"
A: My moral philosophy goes somewhere along the lines of 'build them and break
'em… unless you're too lazy'. I wanted Yami to get close enough to Yuugi to feel the
pain but not as close as to decide against it.

Q: BETTER NOT BE THE LAST CHAP OR THERE BETTER BE A SEQUL OR KILL U
A: I noticed that you guys have a lot more typos when you're upset. Hmmm.. I
wonder if there is a correlation there? To quote Hamlet, 'How weary, stale, flat, and
unprofitable/ Seem to me all the uses of this world.'
If you can find me, go ahead and kill me *smirks*.

I'm sure some of you have read my other fics and have noticed the unholy amount of
deaths I create in them (such as the case in 'Club 0013' and slightly in 'XX09'). That
is because I view death not as a loss but as a final transition, something all slaves and
pharaohs alike share. No, I am not suicidal nor devil-worshipping, but I am…

…A ZOO!!
